My code looks exactly like that, i.e:
@POST
public String post(@QueryParam("foo") String foo) {
//code
// value of foo is null here
}
The thing is, if I access the method outside tests and make a HTTP POST request to the address with the post paramteters I am able to retreive them properly. It is only in the tests that no parameters are received.
Apart from doing as in the code snippet above i have tried to extract parameters from the parameterMap in the HttpServlerRequest object and it is always completely empty. This is not the case outside the tests. The parameters are there if I make a reqular post to the addres via a browser.

Hi!
I am having some trouble with setting up my first test case for jersey. The problem is that post/get paramaters I want to use in my tests. None of the parameters are included in the HttpServlerRequest on the receiving side. Everything else works such as post/get, content types and the different paths.
I use the grizzly server for my tests.
My test class extends JerseyTest and this is the code for my test that sends the post:
WebResource webResource = resource().path("/mypath");
webResource.queryParam(“foo”, "bar");
String responseMsg = webResource.post(String.class);
I have also tried:
WebResource webResource = resource().path("/mypath");
Form form = new Form();
form.add(“foo”, “bar”);
String responseMsg = webResource.post(String.class, form)
Is there something worng with my tests?
most likely yes.
Can you please post the code where you're trying to access query params?
hint: it should look similarly to this:
@Path("mypath")
public class MyResource {
...
@POST
public String post(@QueryParam("foo") String foo) {
return "received query param foo = \"" + foo + "\"";
}
}
